    We started the nature trail at the Glims house museum and from there we walked towards the Bemböle coffee house. The nature trail here runs along asphalt roads and it stung a bit. Right from the bridge crossing the river leading to the hospital, I noticed that there was a path along the river bank that looked quite dry. It was on the other side of Jorvi's meadow. There then! And we didn't regret it at all, even though we weren't officially on the nature trail. It was wild and wild! And the trail only got better after the Jorvinkoski bridge. My husband said that it was "such a rush", but I guess the river was really (REALLY!) great for him too. There are many sections along the Glimsinjoki river. At Jänisenmetsä, the rapids are at their wildest and the terrain is at its steepest. Towards Träskända, it was a bit unclear where the trail ends. We joined the Träskända nature trail at the end, so I guess it went a little overboard.

    Lovely trail starting from the Aurora mansion and winding along the river Glims. The trail starts off fairly accessible but further downstream it narrows down. Can be cycled through but walking is easier, especially when the path gets narrower. The route can be taken from downstream up as well. Is this case start off from Jorvi hospital or Glims museum. The former has paid parking but the latter offers parking for free. The trail is most enjoyable in spring, summer or autumn.

    A small oasis in the middle of the highways. The otter roams the river bed and in winter there are a few bird feeding places in the forest.

    The Espoo nature trail was on the program for Saturday in September, which undoubtedly caused mixed feelings. The Janareitti followed the Glimsinjoki, equipped in some places with really nice scenery. However, the scenery was occasionally spoiled by various surrounding buildings, primarily residential buildings. A chainsaw was also shouted in one yard. The song of the bird came in second place to that uproar. The sounds of traffic could actually be heard along the entire nature trail. So it's an urban nature trail. We started hiking from the Bemböle coffee house, where we also returned after the nature trail.

    Historical place, from the time that Finland was part of Russia, the Russian emperor was there and has a very large house. The park is often used in the summer for picnics. Lots of calm and peace, there's a river that runs through the middle

    Easy trails in old forest, river runs softly in the shade. Aurora kartano no longer open, hopefully Espoo city will renovate this beautiful historic building.

    Kävin ensimmäistä kertaa ja nautin historian havinasta. Menen varmasti uudestaan.

    (Translated by Google) Really just a big park, not very natural. The noise of the highway is heard throughout the area. Better than nothing though. (Original) Oikeasti vain iso puisto, ei kovin luonnontilainen. Autotien meteli kuuluu alueella kauttaaltaan. Parempi kuin ei mitään tosin.

    (Translated by Google) Träskenda Park is a great place to rest etc. (Original) Träskendan puisto on upea paikka levähtää tms.
